Getting the biggest slice of birthday cake even though it’s not your birthday by Samhitha Radhakrishnan

You know what I am talking about. That big slice of rich, chocolate flavored cake (or if you don’t like chocolate, just think of your favorite flavored cake). The slice was as big as a castle in your eyes. You have never seen such a big slice in your life! You see the birthday kid’s mom sliding it onto a plate. Everyone is eyeing that piece, but you know it is going to be given to the birthday kid.


But - wait - the person is handing the slice to you! A torrent of joy is visible on your face. You smile, say “Thank you” and grab the delicious looking slice. And every other kid gives you envious looks, but you don’t care.


The joy of getting the biggest slice and the taste of that slice of cake is all that matters to you now. Way to go champ! That’s…


AWESOME!
